This guy, Max Rose, needs to do a course in history...He is full of sh!t...
In the wake of the attacks, Giuliani was hailed by many for his leadership during the crisis. When polled just six weeks after the attack Giuliani received a 79% approval rating among New York City voters, a dramatic increase over the 36% rating he had received a year earlier seven years into his administration.[23][24]
In his public statements, Giuliani mirrored the emotions of New Yorkers after the September 11 attacks: shock, sadness, anger, resolution to rebuild, and the desire for justice to be done to those responsible. “Tomorrow New York is going to be here”, he said. “And we’re going to rebuild, and we’re going to be stronger than we were before...I want the people of New York to be an example to the rest of the country, and the rest of the world, that terrorism can’t stop us.”[25] Giuliani was widely praised by some for his close involvement with the rescue and recovery efforts, but others, including many police, rescue workers, and families of WTC victims argue that “Giuliani has exaggerated the role he played after the terrorist attacks, casting himself as a hero for political gain.”[26]
As an avid and public fan of the New York Yankees, who won four World Series Championships during his time as mayor, Giuliani was frequently sighted at Yankee games, often accompanied by his son. On September 21, 2001, the first game was played in New York City after the attacks, with the New York Mets at home facing the Atlanta Braves. Despite his being a Yankee fan, the crowd cheered for him and for his leadership over the preceding days.[27]
The term “America’s Mayor”, now in common usage among Giuliani supporters, was coined by Oprah Winfrey at a 9/11 memorial service held at Yankee Stadium on September 23, 2001.[18][28]
The Giuliani-endorsed Republican Michael Bloomberg, took office on January 1, 2002 per normal custom.
Name change: I think it’s gonna be “Max Goes” the next election. Only a paid-off moron would pull the lever for this little megalomaniac.
Thanks, it isn't surprising. :^)
